nice thanks pal!

As fun facts:

Penicillium sp. form the white crust on the camembert and brie, although they both use a different subspecies since it varies from both french regions

Azzuri is the official nickname of Italian soccer team

The term uisce beatha is given to the product of malts ferment destilation, in other words, Whisky.

Gravlax is a type of cured salmon usually served with a dill-mustard mixture and it is cut in very thin pieces. The brine is composed of 60% salt, 40% sugar and one branch of dill per pound of brine, you let it cure on the fridge for 10 days, you then take it out, rinse it a little bit and it's ready to eat. It tastes awesome, go ahead and try it, I recommend it.
